Thanks, everyone.
I have to add a caveat. My father is currently not speaking to his own mother. I don't know if he's got plans to mend that fence or not, but they've had a rollercoaster history. They've had their share of reconciliations too. I know that doesn't bode well for my brother's newfound welcome, but knowing all parties like I do, I know that the fact that they live in Alaska is the best thing they've got going for them. It'll be pretty easy for them to get along at arm's length, now that the major issue has been (seemingly) dealt with.

Definitely. I've told my brother that he's got an out with us, and he echoed my thoughts exactly. Things may very well not work out. My grandmother's house is another place he could stay, if push comes to shove. But we're all staying positive at the moment.
Another good thing - we get to take them to Disneyland! :cool:
